Golden Globes, New Star of the Year - Eddie Murphy |  |
"Nolte and Murphy are good, and their dialogue is good, too -- quirky and funny." - Roger Ebert
In this enormously popular comedy from the unlikely team of Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy comes a full fledged comedic assault. Hard boiled cop Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) temporarily releases the street smart and quick witted criminal Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) from prison to help him find a murderer loose on the streets of San Francisco.

Wikipedia
48 Hrs. is a 1982 American action comedy film directed by Walter Hill, starring Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy as a cop and convict, respectively, who team up to catch a cop-killer. The title refers to the amount of time they have to solve the crime. This was Eddie Murphy's film debut (in his Golden Globe-nominated role), and Joel Silver's first film as a film producer. The screenplay was written by Hill, Roger Spottiswoode, Larry Gross, Steven E. de Souza, and Jeb Stuart (uncredited).

Trivia:
The word "fuck" is used 48 times in its various forms during the course of the film. This appears to be only coincidental to the title however.
